Black Diamond Group Limited (“

last year, the publication details the Company’s commitment to
environmental, social and governance issues and is a key component
to how the Company continues To Create a Better Way and
deliver value for its shareholders, stakeholders and team members
alike.
“As we publish our 2023 Corporate Responsibility
Report, during our 20th year in business I am proud of the legacy
we have built as a Company,” said Trevor Haynes, Chairman &
CEO. “At Black Diamond, we believe strong governance, environmental
stewardship and most importantly, a culture of integrity,
diversity, and high performance, are foundational building blocks
to the growth and continued success of our Company, and it is
through this lens that we operate every day.”

Governance (ESG) Program focuses on the key strategies and
initiatives designed to support sustainability, and this year’s
report highlights our commitment to our team, customers, partners,
communities, and stakeholders across the three pillars of our ESG
framework.
The report outlines our emissions intensity
reduction target of 40% by 2030 and highlights other key
initiatives that support our approach to workplace health and
safety, being responsible stewards of the environment, fostering
meaningful Indigenous relations and investing in the communities
where we operate, while ensuring a culture of integrity, inclusion,
and diversity.
“Within the report, you’ll see how we as a
business – a collective of people working together with positive
intent and common goals – approach the responsibility we share,”
said Trevor Haynes, Chairman & CEO.
Effectively managing our ESG Program with the
same rigour and accountability that we manage all facets of our
Black Diamond businesses will ensure we make a meaningful
difference, while achieving a competitive advantage and leading to
continued growth and profitability.
